Alfred Sisley was one of the most consistent of the Impressionists, staying true to the movement's principles throughout his entire career unlike many of his peers. He had a profound fascination with the town of Moret-sur-Loing, where he lived for the last twenty years of his life, often painting the same landmarks at different times of day to capture the ever-changing effects of light on the water and stone.
